Very much enjoyed your story.
I also moved to BC and started working from home. I did it for a few years and although I didn't have kids I also found reasons to go back to an office. I did this and within 6 months I realized I needed to be back working from home and managing my time so I could be more productive and spend the rest of my time on other things.
So here I am, week one of being back at home trying to get all my routines in order so I can be productive at the level I enjoy. Its taking a little time to get my routine back in order but I very much love being able to skip lunch to take my dogs for a quick walk with my wife who also works from home. It's very much the type of distraction I expect and enjoy.
I think working remotely is the way of the future, and I'm not sure I'll ever be able to properly work in an office environment again to be honest. I feel like taking little breaks where ever you work is important, but when you work from home it's so important to time box those breaks and really implement discipline or you'll just be stressed out about not getting things done, which is the exact opposite of the goal in mind.
